Shell is sponsoring the National Theatre's new production of 'Oedipus',
and, unsurprisingly, Art Not Oil is preparing a response on various
fronts. We're asking people if they're up for making an artwork of some kind as
a response. This could be an image, song, film or poem to appear on our website, or
to be printed on a postcard or something similar. We're open to ideas. (Unfortunately, we aren't able to pay
for your work, but we have no wish to possess it!) ... read full story / add a comment

Outlined below is the divey up of electrical contractors and their employee’s pension monies taken in a highly questionable manner. All this information is taken from the attached company office returns of Pensions and Conditions Limited (EPACE)
It explains to gusto which TEEU use when trying to drag Electrical Contractors into the Labour Court to force them into the bad value for money CWPS.

If we were to make an award for the Gusto Used who would get the Prize Man ?????
See List of directors below to explain this
